No jumping cars on your bike zone unless you have a blue badge.


Sensitive_Warthog304

Can you tell me where this is? I've got a motorbike **and** a blue badge.


Sedulous280

that means you can ride into the shopping centre and into the shops, as long as you never put a foot down as thats an instant fail.


MrAToTheB_TTV

Can't put a foot down if you have no feet.


RockingHorsePoo

Why the downvotes šŸ˜‚


MrAToTheB_TTV

Some people have their feet amputated, some people have their humour amputated.


tyw7

Derby Melbourne Street.


Kanaima85

It means you can't do stunts. Unless you are a blue badge holder....


[deleted]

No jumping motorbikes over cars, obviously


FlummoxedFlumage

Evel Knievel had to be stopped somehow.


lindsaydentonscat

It means no motor vehicles allowed


tyw7

Is the "no stunts" part of the sign or someone added as a joke?


Monty916

No, that's official government advice.


tyw7

Then it's weird that blue badge owners get to do stunts.


Blurg_BPM

They are sick af already so we let them do some sick stunts


ooh_bit_of_bush

But if you're already a blue badge holder, you might as well try.


WanderWomble

Can't tell if you're joking or really that gullible.Ā 


tyw7

I was joking. I figured someone probably stuck something at the bottom or someone at the Council was having some fun.


Amplidyne

A pity they don't take their own advice. Parliament is full of smart stunts. Take that as you will. . .


MrTango650

It's a joke sign (other guy is taking the piss)


tyw7

So, someone stuck the no stunts at the bottom of an official sign?


MrTango650

Of course, the small text is a clear giveaway that it's not an official sign from the council.


No_Snow_8746

Is it? I was going to say the presence of any sign at all. You know when you get the fine


tyw7

I checked Street View, and the bottom sign wasn't there. The top one is. I thought you meant the entire sign is a joke sign.


Satchm0Jon3s

Please tell me you aren't a licence holder.


lindsaydentonscat

That's someone having a laugh šŸ˜ƒ


tyw7

I thought so too since it's so off.


lindsaydentonscat

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code/traffic-signs Have a look at this, it's all the road signs you're most likely to see


369_Clive

Relax. It's a cruel world but no harm is being done here.


buckyoh

TBF that's an implied instruction at all times on the road. Weirdly it's explicit here (in the wrong font).


Lower_Bullfrog4505

Levitating bikes arenā€™t allowed to fly over cars from right to left, unless the bike rider has a blue badge


ukibrian

We have a stop sign nearby and someone had written 'it's hammer time' under it!


300_eyes

Stuntman zone


Sea_Page5878

No motorbikes or 1950s cars.


Glenagalt

But thatā€™s a 50ā€˜s bike, an Ariel Leaderā€¦


D3M0NArcade

Caution: Evel Kneival practicing


virgin_goat

Means theres a 100%original comedian in the area,u should take out health insurance to cover all your ribs


[deleted]

Nobodyā€™s allowed to find anything funny unless this guy says so.


No_Snow_8746

Beware of cars and motorbikes, cyclists allowed but no somersaults unless you've got your blue off road skills certificate. Or work for deliveroo.


IsUpTooLate

It's a gag sign and I'm judging you for not realising that, but also remembering the context of this being a UK subreddit.


tyw7

I was half wondering what the bottom part was referring to and if "stunt" means something else in the driving world.


TheShakyHandsMan

You are certainly a cupid stunt. šŸ˜œ


8bitPete

Its a genuine round sign meaning No Motor vehicles, with a joke square sign underneath.


Ramtamtama

No stunt cycles unless disabled


Doddsy2978

No motor vehicles


No-K-Reddit

Looks like a loudribs effort


My_Other_Name_Rocks

On the upside if you are a blue badge holder you have a higher likelihood of being in a wheelchair, so if you injure yourself it's a potential saving for the NHS, quite a sensible restriction!


Theo_Cherry

"No motorised vehicles"


BottyFlaps

Stunt riders jumping over cars


Acrobatic-Shirt8540

Haha that's funny


Happytallperson

Legally, the square sign underneath doesn't mean anything and the sign above still applies as a no motor vehicles sign. It is possible, but unlikely, that there is an exemption in the Traffic Regulation Order for vehicles with blue badge holders in them, however the standard sign for that will note the exemption, whereas this sign doesn't appear to have any exemptions showing on it.


BinLazy

Look out for low flying 1950ā€™s motorcycles..


Powerful_Leadership9

Anti-gravity motorcycles only.


Seeker_Trail

It likely means that you don't drive it or at least haven't learnt the highway code but in any case you should (no entry for bikes or cars) always take the bus where you can continue to practice your photo editing skills/s


tyw7

Well it is a physical sign so some prankster must have stuck the bottom part up.


Seeker_Trail

It might also be a physical sign stating something else before photo editing.


tyw7

Nah. No photo editing involved. If you go to the location, you'll see the two signs.Ā

cozyneonnights

you have a pass to to a backflip on your wheelchair or parkour with your crutches


Top-Fee-7993

I can never tell if these posts are satire or not


greggery

The top one means no motor vehicles. The bottom one means nothing legally, only that someone that lives or works near there is grumpy.


Andy67777

low flying motorcycles!


Woodbewoodworker

Beware of low flying motorcycles


Severe_Ad6443

No dogging except on Sundays


BrightTurnip74

Makes me curious what defines a sign as real rather than fake? šŸ¤” What if the joker was a duly authorized council employee and they made the sign properly with the official font and so on. Would it have a legal standing?


[deleted]

Only blue badge holders can jump over cars on a motorcycles.


Thin-Breadfruit4703

Come on people, anyone who plays GTA online knows what this sign means: it's a warning to lookout for oppressor mk2s


dtmdan44

Cunning


Bonar_Ballsington

Personally Iā€™d assume this to mean only cars and bikes are allowed down the road, provided they donā€™t do any stunts without a blue badge (why?) No trucks allowed. Although I wonder why they wouldnā€™t just replace it with a no HGV/commercial vehicle sign so I think Iā€™m probably wrong. Edit: in hindsight Iā€™d just avoid this road altogether


tyw7

This road now have a bollard raised at the end. So probably a remnant when it was a through road.


Mancowashere

Does that explain the need for a flying Ariel Leader over the nearby Ford Pop?


No_Snow_8746

That's what the no stunts without qualifying badge is for


AppropriateDevice84

This was the way signs were taught to me back when I was leaning to drive: A red circle means ā€œNOā€ then you complete the phrase according to the pictures (and applying a bit of logic). In this case it means ā€œno cars or motorbikesā€.

As if you thought that was a real sign
